BARF feeding for dogs

BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) is a form of raw feeding in which a balanced mix of different types of meat and other components is fed to the dog. In addition to muscle meat, offal, bones and vegetables and fruit are also part of the BARF diet. This variety of components, combined with the targeted use of essential supplements, ensures that the dog receives all the nutrients it needs for optimal health and vitality.

Raw feeding closely resembles the natural diet of dogs and their ancestor, the wolf. Since feeding whole prey animals is usually not feasible for practical reasons, a healthy BARF meal should ideally be composed of different animal and plant-based ingredients. In this way, a natural prey animal can be imitated — which is why BARF feeding for dogs is also often referred to as feeding based on the prey model.

Benefits of BARF for dogs

The BARF diet offers numerous health benefits through the use of natural and unprocessed ingredients. Fresh meat as the main component of the BARF diet provides essential proteins that are crucial for building and maintaining muscles. Moreover, fresh meat contains vital amino acids important for metabolic processes, skin and coat care, and overall well-being. A protein-rich diet significantly contributes to the long-term fitness and vitality of your dog.

In addition to protein, the BARF diet also provides a balanced mix of vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy life. Vitamins such as B-complex vitamins, and minerals like iron, zinc and magnesium, support the immune system and cognitive functions. BARF also promotes better digestion and can reduce the risk of allergies and intolerances, as it contains no artificial additives or preservatives. Overall, thanks to its natural composition, BARF feeding contributes significantly to improving your dog’s quality of life and well-being.
